Issue: Communication tactics

Subissue: Threatened to take legal action

Consumer Complaint: I received a text message on XX/XX/XXXX from my general manager at my place of employment letting me know someone was trying to get in touch with me and he gave me their information. I called the number and gave them the reference number. I was then transferred to a gentleman claiming to be from XXXX. He had all my information, social, amount I currently have available on my credit cards and so on. He told me I owe money for a credit card I had in XX/XX/XXXX. I asked why I had n't received anything in the mail and he told me they had sent it, the mail service can be unreliable. I said I wanted something in writing from them, to prove they are who they say they are. I mentioned that I had n't seen anything on my XXXX credit report and he said it was because I needed to check my XXXX one. I told him bottom line I did n't feel comfortable settling for XXXX and issuing a credit card payment without any knowledge of who they are. He said he could send me a generic email, that would n't pertain any type of payment information to set up, just general information. I was leaving for work at the time and he did send the email which did n't even contain a letterhead. I google searched the number they had called from, XXXX, and found numerous complaints about threatening and harassing calls. I also bought my experian credit report and found that a company, XXXX ran a credit check on me on XXXX XXXX, which would explain how he had all my information. I searched that company and found a phone number but when I called that company it was a voicemail saying if I left a message someone would return my call in 24hours. I left it at that. Then today, XX/XX/XXXX around XXXX someone claiming to be from XXXX? called my place of employment asking for the address and my name, my employee then gave the phone to me. It was a woman claiming to be from a processing server company who told me they were planning to come to my place of employment within the next hour to serve me with papers that would require a signature, I said that was fine. She then repeatedly asked if I wanted a number so I could call and have the serving of the papers rerouted, I said no, its fine. She asked what time I would be here until and I said I 'll be here all day. It 's now XXXX EDT and no one has shown up. I explained to my general manager what was going on and apologized for the phone call. He told me that when he was contacted yesterday the woman on the phone was telling him they needed to contact me immediately or that was it, I would lose my chance of any resolution. He also said that he was received numerous call from who he assumes is them again today but he was not answered to avoid any further problems.

Issue: Problems when you are unable to pay

Subissue:

Consumer Complaint: Today, XXXX/XXXX/XX/XX/XXXX, at XXXX XXXX CST, I received a phone call from someone stating that they are with the XXXX and that they are representing HSBC Bank. She stated that they are working with HSBC to file Felony Theft of Business Services charges against myself and my husband due to a vehicle that was repossessed from us. The vehicle was repossessed back in XXXX XX/XX/XXXX. She stated that HSBC has been sending letters to us, but we have not received anything to date in regards to this. The address that they have supposedly been sending letters to, we have not lived at for over 6 years. We put in a forwarding address with the post office and our current address is listed on file with our credit report. The original creditor HSBC has already written off the debt and it has already fallen off of my credit report. I have not seen the collection for the debt listed on my credit report any longer as of XXXX XX/XX/XXXX. Can they legally file these charges against us on a debt that is almost 8 years old? Is n't this considered a " Dead Debt '' which in Texas is illegal to collect on? When I requested written documentation, she stated that it would take 30-45 days to receive in the mail. She stated that they only have it in their office for the next XXXX hours before it goes to be processed for a summons for court. She did not ask for my current address. She also stated that I would be receiving a summons in the mail to appear in court in regards to this matter. HSBC has made no attempt to contact me since XX/XX/XXXX when the vehicle was repossessed.

Issue: Loan modification,collection,foreclosure

Subissue:

Consumer Complaint: In 2011, I was placed on XXXX due to a work related issue. The XXXX lasted for approximately 8 months. Upon being able to return to work, I was fired the following day and remained unemployed for an additional 3 months. I was making a significant salary at that time and also on an adjustable mortgage plan. During my XXXX/unemployment I was struggling to maintain my mortgage payments and became late. XXXX more month of being delinquent, I may have faced foreclosure. Thankfully, I regained employment but my salary was reduced by nearly 10 % in addition the commute was quite distant. On or around this period, my adjustable interest rate with HFC went up by nearly 50 %. I contacted HFC and requested assistance. HFC only granted temporary modifications at 6 month increments. My last time requesting for a modification, I was denied and told that I have exceeded the maximum amount of modification requests and advised that I can reapply in a year and I would be eligible once again for loan modification. I waited patiently and one year later, I reapplied and I was denied. I appealed the request stating that I was advised that I would be eligible after a year but my appeal was denied. The only XXXX options I was given were either a Short Sale or Deed in Lieu of Foreclosure. I turned down those options because I DO NOT WANT TO LOSE MY HOME! After struggling to make my mortgage payments, I tried to refinance my loan but was denied because I am underwater with my loan and my loan to value was not good. I was then referred to XXXX, XXXX for assistance. I worked with XXXX and they submitted my refinance request to HFC. Again, HFC denied my modification request and this time for different reasons. I was again only given XXXX options, either a short sale or a deed in lieu of foreclosure. During my time trying to work with HFC on refinancing my loan I was also told that they do not do modification loans in addition, do not have to comply with the Obama mortgage rescue plan. I am seeking your assistance in hopes by filing a complaint to HFC of their unfair acts with mortgage rates. Currently my XXXX mortgage rage is 7.59 % and my second just went up to 10.15 %!!! It 's sickening and absurd that mortgage companies are allowed to do this to consumers, knowing that they are stuck between a rock and a hard place and can not get out of their contract with them. HFC is very aware that I am underwater and my LTV is too low that no other bank will refinance my loan so they are taking advantage of a long time customer with a high interest rate and knowing that the current market rate is between 2-4 %

Issue: Loan servicing, payments, escrow account

Subissue:

Consumer Complaint: I experienced an unexpected temporary financial hardship and I contacted Beneficial to explore options. The representative that I spoke with suggested that she could offer a deferred payment plan. Notably, I fulfilled the requirements of the payment plan. However, upon a recent review of my credit report, I noticed that Beneficial reported my account delinquent during the deferred payment plan period ( XXXX and XXXX ). Though I appreciate the deferred payment plan, I am upset that Beneficial failed to disclose that they would report the account delinquent to the credit reporting agencies during this period. Indubitably, if I had known that the account would have been reported as delinquent to the credit reporting agencies - I would have borrowed the money from a friend or a family member.
